Major Acid Reflux

[lynnlee 5]

Hi

I will be 4 weeks post op this coming Tuesday and I am having really really bad acid reflux it's making it hard to drink because I just feel nauseaus as well. I am on a prescription anti acid 2x per day and am still struggling. Does anyone else have this problem and does it get better?

No, I never had issues with acid reflux, but maybe your doctor can change your prescription or dosage. You shouldn't have to suffer through this. Give them a call!

I just posted on this today and got feedback to eat really really slowly and watch out for triggers. I agree you should call your surgeon as well which is what I did last night and he increased my dosage.

Well I had surgery in Aug of 2013 and I suffer from acid reflux. I take a pill daily since the surgery. They have told me to watch for the things that I eat and when I eat but I have noticed that when I go to bed at night sometimes I wakeup with it and have given myself enough time to digest my dinner before I lay down. So, I just dont know what brings it on or how to stop it other than taking Omeprazole 40 MG a day.
